So heres the update, i can't initialise the drive using Apples hd sc program. It says the device is still mounted or that i file is in use, even after i drag the hard drive to trash and all the stuff to do with it disapears. I even tried booting with disabled extentions no luck. Could it be due to the drive's damage (ie sticking)? I ran the test in hd sc and it passed. Also it is on scsi id 0, is that normal/possible? I'm using a 7.1 pro disk tools floppy.

***Update*** I ran the erase disk from the menu bar at the top on the hard drive. It is empty, but still won't run hd sc and bombs on the installer.
